I've Moved...

I've moved, visit me at my new blog The Crafty Nest! You can subscribe to my new blog feed via email HERE. I hope to see you there!

Wednesday, June 2, 2010

Well, that was the shortest blogging break ever lol! I'm excited to announce the launch of The Crafty Nest! It is still a work in progress but I'm too excited not to share it with you now! This move is bittersweet to me because I've grown attached to Designs by Vanessa, having blogged here for the past 2 years. I'm looking forward to my own space (no more .blogspot.com) and a website that can grow with me. Thank you to my fabulous readers (the ones that come back post after post, even when I have nothing interesting to say), you have kept me inspired and I hope that you will continue to follow along my crafty journey at my new site.

Meet me over at The Crafty Nest!

Taking a break...

Without going into any behind the scenes details, my new website launch has unfortunately been delayed. No fears, I have a new fab designer on the case and I should be up and running again really soon. But until then, I'm in need of a small blogging break. Something that started out as a stress reliever has recently turned into a major source of stress, which is not a good thing at 30 weeks pregnant. So I'm taking a step back to remember what I love so much about blogging - which for me has always been my awesome readers in blog land and having a creative space just for me. I'll be back soon but until then, keep calm and craft on!
